The work draws on ADHD-informed psychotherapy, hypnotherapy for emotional regulation, structure and executive support coaching — chosen based on what your nervous system, your history, and your current life actually need. That flexibility is the point.
How sessions run
- Step 1
Prepare for real life
The final phase rehearses the pattern under normal life stress, so results don't collapse the moment life gets busy.
- Step 2
Bridge sessions with tools
You leave with practical tools so between-session weeks are worked, not wasted.
- Step 3
Map what's actually happening
The first sessions build a clear picture of the pattern — not just the symptoms, but the driver underneath.
- Step 4
Consolidate the change
Change has to hold beyond the session. Self-hypnosis, a short practice or a home task keeps it embedded.

What clients ask before booking
Are online sessions ADHD-friendly?+
For clients in Chesterfield (S40) specifically: Yes — for many ADHD adults, online sessions reduce travel friction and improve attendance.
Can this help with masking exhaustion?+
Yes. Reducing internal masking is one of the most common outcomes clients notice.
Do you work with couples where one partner is ADHD?+
Yes — either as ADHD therapy for the individual or via the couples work.
Is late-diagnosis grief a normal part of this?+
Very. It is treated as a real, worked-with theme, not brushed past.
Do you provide diagnostic assessment?+
No. Diagnosis is a separate service via NHS or private providers; therapy runs alongside that pathway.
